Ben Sira 1:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 [a]There is but one, wise and truly awesome,
seated upon his throne—the Lord.
9 It is he who created her,
saw her and measured her,(A)
Poured her forth upon all his works,
10 upon every living thing according to his bounty,
lavished her upon those who love him.
